There are two main reasons to install instrument cluster LED light bulbs. They give off more light to the instruments and then run a lot cooler. We offer them for the W124 in bright white and amber. If you can not decide on which color see the images below for a side-by-side comparison.
It is always good to have two of these when working on cooling system components or fuel system components. You could clamp off both sides of the hose so you can easily remove the component without losing fluids.
Straight and bright. This is the actual set you will receive.
If you have an early OBD-1 system and your check engine light comes on, you will need this to diagnose the problem. There is lots of information online on how to do this.

This was removed from a 1982 300SD that was running and driving before being parted out. I do not know what work, if any, was done on this valve body, but it does look fairly clean on the outside. We do recommend you open it up and clean it, as well as install new accumulator seals.

This can be used on older 4, 6, and 8 cylinder gas engines up to around 2011 that have 5/8" spark plugs (except the M112 and M113 engines due to restriced access - see related products below). On some engines, you have very limited room to get to the rear sparkplugs.

Yes, that is correct, these are OEM parts - not cheap aftermarket. These are the same parts on all 272 V6 and 273 V8 from 2006 to 2013. That is a few million cars that are now all aging, and many have not had these parts replaced.
Here is a preventative maintenance issue that hardly ever gets mentioned. I think some people believe electronic fuel injectors will last forever. I took an ML320 with 250K and decided to replace the injectors.
You can not believe how much trouble a loose or missing shifter rod bushing can cause.
You attach these to your 300D, 300CD, 300TD, 5-cylinder engine and turn the engine over with the starter motor for cleaning and testing.

Watch the YouTube video below where Kent installs this kit on a GL450. Kent will tell you everything about this kit and why you should do this joy yourself around 100,000 miles. All the procedures are the same for the W221 (non-ABC) and W211 with the V8 engines.
This is a must-do anytime you have the transmission out of one of these cars, and you know it has not been done in the past 10 years. Of course, if you are leaking engine oil out of the bellhousing after a long drive, then you should also replace it.

These are getting harder to find in good used condition. Replacing a valve body with a known good one is often an easy way to troubleshoot a problematic transmission. Fluid inside is clean and has been stored in a sealed bag since removal.
This is the exact part you will receive. All hoses are still soft and usable.

Kent's highly detailed xx-minute video on how to remove the K3 and pump assembly from the front of a 722.3, take it all apart to gain access to the big pump O-ring, replace it and the torque converter seal, and put it all back together again.
Kent will share his knowledge from years of doing pressure tests on these old transmissions. Don't be afraid to do this. It is definitely a entry level DIY procedure.
Too much pressure and you will blow the seals. Too little pressure and you will wear out the clutch packs. When installing a new vacuum modulator on your transmission, you most likely will need to adjust it. There are two ways to do this.
More often than not you will find these cracked and broken.
These unique filters are almost gone, and word has it they may no longer be made. Please do not order more than two. Thanks.
